I wish I could have rode the train before they converted the engines. Coal has such a better smell then oil but I understand why they converted.

I only have flown gliders. Go-around is NOT an option....
Yep. Happened to me when I was on short final and the landing aircraft had not cleared the runway. Just as I pulled the gear up, the aircraft exited the runway and tower said "cleared to land." A quick scramble followed, but I got the gear down and landed successfully.
Go arounds can also happen if the pilot has not stabilized the approach and realizes that it's much better to try it again. Been there, done that!

For the first time in years and years I saw my S2000 go down the road today. With the humidity it feels like 93° - that's why I am inside. I would see it all the time in his garage under a cover and items stacked on it. He took it out daily when I first sold it to him. Its been over a year since I talked with him; as I recall he was having some back issues. I wonder if he has any idea they are back in demand.
And in a bit of irony it has just started to sprinkle.

I'd love to buy it back, if just for a couple track days. I love it! But realizing Donna's back could not deal with it - legs going numb - a pretty good signal that it may not be the best car for us. So, it had to go.

Doesn't your lovely bride have a horse that you don't ride?

And after putting one down last year, she is fighting with how to deal with the last one - keep riding or retire? Non-stop-issues . . . day-to-day . . . TBD. My advice, if you or someone you love, loves horses, steer them into a new hobby.

Right. Just like her trying to steer you away from your love of certain cars.
